Chapter 16 Detection
As an adventurer who rose from a commoner to the present day, Corrivor has gone through many hardships and life-and-death crises before honing his current abilities.
Whether it was the magical armor he wore or the fighting spirit and fighting skills he was proud of, they were all the result of Corrivo's accumulation bit by bit.
In countless adventures, Corriveau has a special item that has played a big role.
A special magic item that Corriveau calls a 'soul detection device'.
A special metal wristband with the intermediate magic "Soul Detection" attached. It is a special magic item that can automatically distinguish the strength of the soul breath emanating from the body of the person being detected.
When Corrivo was still a rookie adventurer, he followed the Adventurer's Guild's large group to an ancient ruins without knowing his own limitations. Fortunately, Corrivo managed to save his life, and also brought out from the ruins a magical item left over from the ancients, the 'Soul Detection Device', which he had accidentally picked up.
This is the item that Corriveau currently wears on his wrist as a wristband.
Depending on the strength of the soul of the detected target, this "soul detection device" will emit corresponding heat. The higher the temperature, the greater the threat posed by the detected target to the holder.
So far, the highest temperature emitted by this "soul detection device" was when Corrivo used it on a Gold-level adventurer. The scorching heat deeply stung his skin, and even his fighting spirit could not eliminate the burning sensation.
And today, Corrivo had clearly used the "soul detection device" on Luo Qiu at the first opportunity, but there was no reaction on the wristband, and there was no temperature at all.
There is no temperature, which is a very common situation. For example, when detecting little Irene, this "soul detection device" will not have any reaction, because little Irene can never threaten him.
But what about Luo Qiu? According to the information obtained from Codya's letter, he is a man who can use an ordinary iron sword to kill five goblins with one sword and can even use intermediate magic such as "Black Rain". Such a strong man is enough to threaten his life, so how could it be possible that the "soul detection device" has no reaction.
"Some kind of anti-detection method was used?" Corriveau thought to himself.
The intermediate magic "Soul Detection" is not invincible. If you use shielding magic or fighting skills, you can also block the detection. But the problem is, most people probably don't turn on this kind of shielding magic or fighting skills all the time.
Or does the other party just happen to have such a special item that can block "soul detection"?
Corriveau didn't have time to think about it, because little Irene was already running towards him.
"Dad! Daddy!"
His daughter's voice deeply touched Corriveau's heart. Corriveau opened his arms and hugged little Irene who came running towards him.
"Haha, Irene, do you miss your dad?"
"Think - Mom!"
"What?" Corriveau blew his beard and glared, "You make Dad very sad."
"Hehehe..." Little Irene laughed crisply.
Holding his daughter, Corriveau looked at the young man who was walking towards him leisurely.
Although he didn't know whether this person had good or bad intentions, the moment he held his daughter in his arms, Corrivo's doubts about Luo Qiu dissipated a lot. At least now his daughter was back in Rozeroway and in his arms in good health. If the Fenwen Village was really destroyed by the goblins and his daughter died there... Corrivo didn't dare to imagine that possibility at all.
"You must be Lord Luo Qiu who saved Fenwen Village."
Corriveau said in a humble tone.
Before Luo Qiu could answer, little Irene started chattering in Corriveau's ear: "Dad, he is big brother Luo Qiu, big brother is very awesome!"
As he spoke, he waved his fist excitedly. "I'm Luo Qiu."
Luo Qiu nodded, deliberately keeping a stern face, and his tone was not very polite.
Of course, he had noticed it when Corriveau had used 'Soul Detection' on him just now.
You have to know that in "Burning God Realm", those who want to find Luo Qiu can line up to circle the earth. Almost every top-ranked guild has set up a department dedicated to finding the sky thief. Those people can use any means to find him, but as long as he doesn't show up on his own initiative, those people can't find him even if they turn the game world upside down. It is too fantastic for a mere Corrivo to want to obtain some useful information from Luo Qiu with a prop with intermediate magic attached.
With the artifact-level ring 'Heaven-Covering Ring', unless one has the 'Eye of Living Beings' on his body or the 'Chain of Heaven and Earth' that can invalidate the effect of the 'Heaven-Covering Ring', these two extraordinary artifacts that just happen to restrain him, can they completely see through his information.
"Thank you very much for saving my hometown. If there is anything I can do for you, please feel free to ask. After all, I am a little famous in Roselowe."
Feeling the unhappiness in Luo Qiu's words, Corrivo knew very well that the young man in front of him might have discovered that he had just used the "soul detection device". While he was horrified, he could only be more humble. After all, using "soul detection" without confirming the opponent's enemy was almost like pushing the opponent to the opposite side of himself.
"Really? Then give me the wristband on your hand." Luo Qiu said lightly.
Little Irene could feel Corriveau's body shake for a moment.
"dad?"
"Um...oh, sorry, Dad is fine." Corriveau put little Irene down from his arms and looked at Luo Qiu with a complicated expression.
Obviously, he was disturbed by Luo Qiu's words just now.
"you…"
"Alright, alright, I was just kidding." Luo Qiu shrugged and said nonchalantly, "I don't care about a little gadget that only has one kind of magic. Irene has been safely delivered to you, and my mission is accomplished."
"Goodbye, little Irene."
He patted little Irene's head gently and disappeared in little Irene's puzzled gaze.
"Big brother..." Little Irene stretched out her little hand, but unfortunately she only grabbed empty air.
"Dad, why did my big brother suddenly disappear?"
Little Irene, who doesn't understand the adult world, seeks answers from her father.
"He suddenly had something to do so he left first. Didn't he just say that we'll see each other again in the future?"
"Oh, then I really hope to see big brother again soon."
“I think so…”
Corrivo held his daughter's hand and walked towards the city of Roserowe, taking a last look at the place where Luo Qiu disappeared.
Suppressing the regret in his heart, Corriveau speculated: "Was that supposed to be the teleportation magic 'Distance Teleport'?"
